Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “What has history to do with me? Mine is the first and only world! I want to report how I find the world. What others have told me about the world is a very small and incidental part of my experience. I have to judge the world, to measure things.”
    —Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

    “All history becomes subjective; in other words there is properly no history, only biography.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “When the history of guilt is written, parents who refuse their children money will be right up there in the Top Ten.”
    —Erma Brombeck (20th century)
